Bitcoin is losing its dominance over crypto. The digital coin commanded nearly 90% of the crypto market at the beginning of 2017, but that number hit a low of 42% on Monday, according to data from CoinMarketCap.com.

The yield curve is the flattest it’s been since 2007. The spread between the two-year and 10-year yields fell below 51 basis points on Wednesday, making for the tightest it’s been since the fourth quarter of 2007.

US economic data is light. Initial claims will be released at 8:30 a.m. ET, and Chicago PMI will cross the wires at 9:45 a.m. ET.
